Premier!!

So remember that exciting premier I hinted at in my last post? It has arrived! Now, before you watch the loverly internet video that you will find below, I should probably explain myself. Sometime last semester, our darling Emma noted that Fphour tends to run itself like a family sitcom. And sometime after that, we realized that it would be really brilliant if we actually made it. And, it being JanTerm, we have some time on our hands (it's not like any of us are taking classes, you see). So what you are about to watch is the first fruits of an intense labor. It's only the tip of the iceberg- we've created back story and universe details that you can't begin to imagine, and have another episode written, a third outlined, and are hoping to shoot both of them this weekend. We expect this thing to last a while, because it entertains us. Hopefully it will also entertain you a little bit.

This version is slightly rough because I insist on putting it up now (and no one else in my production team thinks that's a very good idea), and you might see a prettier version tomorrow or Sunday.

Oh My Exclusives From Paisley Man!

Some early costume tests have been leaked and they are fabulous!

Paisley Man!!


Also, Living Strange Days is proceeding on schedule and may be premiering this weekend! Watch this space for news.

In other news, this photo exists and makes me so happy:


And before you go saying "neat how did you make that in photoshop" there was zero photoshop involved in this and instead a really really old camera was used and we all sat still for 25 seconds.

Frantic

So life is incredibly boring these day and I am absolutely obsessed with my music library, so guess what you get! One of those silly shuffle-your-music surveys! Woo! The fun part? I might throw the mix into a zip folder and give it to you. If I don't find better things to do this afternoon.

Commence copy-paste!

1. Put your music player on shuffle.
2. Press forward for each question.
3. Use the song title as the answer to the question.-

No cheating!

What does next year have in store for me?
The Second- Oliver Future. (2007 part two? That'll be fine.)

How would I describe my life right now
Cruella DeVille- 101 Dalmations. (See? Boredom=cruelty!)

What do I say when life gets hard?
Coz I Love You - Brian Slade. (Velvet Goldmine fixes EVERYTHING.)

What do you think of when waking up?
Tickets to What You Need- Badly Drawn Boy. (I think about the dream I had where I was married to Madonna?)

What song will I dance to at my wedding?
Space and Time (live)- The Verve. (I think this means the Verve are playing at my wedding. Sweet? Alternately, space and time are finally on my side, yaaaaay.)

What song will be played at my funeral?
It's OK tag/speech by Pearl Jam. (A track of Pearl Jam talking? Ok I need to fix the amount of concert stuff that's in my library. Alternately, "it's okay" that I'm dead. Thanks, guys.)

How will I be remembered?
All the Wine by the National. (I am not an alcoholic, I swear.)

What do you want as a career?
This is It by Ryan Adams. (It is totally my career. Blogging is not. Although blogging wouldn't be bad.)

Chris Michaels by Fiery Furnaces. (this is a sweet song about international gangsters, I think. Or birds. It's hard to tell, but I feel good about it.)

Children of December by the Slip. (Guys my birthday is not in December. I don't even like December.)

How does your ex-girlfriend/boyfriend see you?

The Sharing Song by Jack Johnson. (I am sharing my mind. Via my music.)

If I were a song, what would I be?
Monday Monday Monday by Tegan and Sara. (Really? Of all possible songs?)
